Even Gary commented on it. Lets see if Shorty can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

Gary said Mike Marshall, first baseman. <<<<***SWOON**>>>>

Ugh. Hits against the shift and of course its fkinfrddifreemn

[Frayed Knot]

Braves have, what, six hits tonight? - and three of them have been accidents up the 3B line by LHBs

[Frayed Knot]

Was hoping for a GiDP from McCann ... but I'll take the K

[Edgy MD]

Burke's got to earn his keep here.

[Frayed Knot]

Typical Uggla night so far: K - K - HR - ??

[Zvon]

Uggla looks like he has to take a leak when he bats.

And now a walk makes it even more typical.

[Fman99]

This would be a good time to get an out.

[Zvon]

I have a problem with a pitcher whose grimace and smile look the same.

[Edgy MD]

A pitcher who drops down against a batter who drops down.

[Edgy MD]

His hands aren't even together. He must be crazy strong to hit home runs out of that stance with that swing.

[Edgy MD]

And.. kablooey.

[Fman99]

Or, you know, the bullpen could take a big dump on the mound.

[Frayed Knot]

Gattis looked for a bit like he was slowing down and coming back to earth ... but lately he's picked it back up again.

Biggest crime in this inning was, as usual, the two walks. We've been killing ourselves with that type of inning lately.

HOw 'bout trying to get on base down two runs John instead of swinging for the fences every time?

Done.

Yes, although through not a lot of effort of his own.
Just didn't like that 2-0 swing is all.

[Edgy MD]

Wow. Mock cheers for fouling off a curve.

[Frayed Knot]

Ike gets a hand for
1) a foul ball
2) laying off a curve in the dirt

... and then Ks anyway.

[Fman99]

Ol' Nutbruise's chance to shine here.

[Frayed Knot]

OK, this is as good a spot for Valdespin as any.

[Zvon]

Make Shorty look good Valde!

[Edgy MD]

This game should be delayed here.

After [crossout]Valdespin[/crossout] Murphy [crossout]homers[/crossout] singles.

Upton's misplay is certainly a weather-factored play.

[Frayed Knot]

OK, we know Ankiel has been saving it for NOW!!!!

Maybe, but he was sloppy about it too.
